So please, just remember to respect everyone here and on the course.

It's still pretty wooly. I'm working with the parks department on the mowing. Otherwise we had a great round and everyone seemed to agree the course was fun and challenging. We only left three behind in the water too.

My first daylight round at Old Pike and I'm kicking myself for not getting there sooner. I can't report much on the round though. All I can tell you is this... -14 won and there were two -11s. I was on a card with Billy Nelson and his partner Mike (didn't catch his last name). They threw a -4. My partner, Ash Lawrence, and I threw a -6 and Brenda and Utz were on the card but I forgot what they shot. Fun league! I'll be back....

Today is the start of Tuesday rounds at USM. We'll be meeting by #1 around 5pm and teeing off sometime after that. let me know if you are interested in joining us today or any other Tuesday this season. There will be at least three of us today so far and bag tags are in play.

Baskets and benches for the back nine are going in on April 14th. Of course there will be the inaugural round taking place as soon as the work is done but the following week on Sunday, April 22nd, the day after the Swope Spring Renewal, I would like to cordially invite all KC disc golfers to come check out the 18 hole +1 course at Clover Dell Park in Sedalia, MO.

Perhaps some bag tag challenges and maybe a money round... just come check it out!

Saturday March 10th and March 17th will be two major work days at Clover Dell. We have an Eagle Scout project spearheading the installation of the back nine and a Lion's Club project clearing brush and preparing for the basket installation. If you are in the area and want to join in please do. If you've played the front nine at Clover Dell and were less than impressed you can expect to have your opinion changed. Big things are on tap for Sedalia disc golf. The front nine is continuing to mature and the back nine will have three legitimate par fours. It might even have a bonus!

New left pin on #6New Long left pin on #1Lots of cedars removed on #4, #5 and #6 and several trimmed up at the bottom.

Now have alternate pins on all holes but #2, #7, #8. Alternate long tees on #1, #2 and #4 are there but people seem to forget about them. I think signs on those holes are in order.

We have a new sign letting people know the course is there but still need a marquee. The Lions Club has offered to build the marquee.

There is a bump in the road for the planned nine-hole expansion. They want to see more people playing to justify the added expense of maintaining the course (mowing). I ran into some new players Saturday that plan to lobby for the expansion but the proposed layout was nixed. A new layout proposal is in the works.

Still meeting at 5:30 on Mondays until DST goes away. Then twice a month on Saturday morning at 10am is the plan.

It's a slow go but disc golf is slowly catching on in Sedalia. Look for a larger event there in the spring, especially if the expansion goes through.

This is an event to support a group that has been providing 1500 meals a week to area homeless. They have raised funds for the event and simply want people to come participate. No donation required but gratefully accepted.

If you plan to attend please contact Dan Cashen at 913.638.6399 so he can get a headcount for lunch.
